Finding Me Truth #3: The Beauty of Loss

March 11, 2015 | 2 Comments

The beauty of loss is that you don’t go back to who you are but you do become a whole new you.

Loss changed me, it made me much more different than the woman I used to be.

I have an keener ear to the pulse and language of the world now than I did before.

Loss has made me more relaxed in some areas of life, more comfortable with myself; in others I’m still a hot mess and as my girl Bri would say “the struggle is real.”

I know what a deep wound to the soul is. I also know what healing feels like from the heart of God hand fashioned for me.

I understand what joy beyond my sorrow can look like. I’ve lived this and I’m still in it.

What I Know To Be True

Just when you find that sweet spot in life, that comfortable place, that uncanny familiar, change comes in like a flaming bat out of hell and whirlwinds all your comfortable up. If you’re limited in your thinking you’ll fight it every way you can. But, if you’re ready to grow, you’ll embrace change like a new love and let it lead you to growth you could never dream of but always sensed you desperately needed.
